Leiden University (The Netherlands) offers a MA in History with the 
specialisation "Global Connections: Migration, Networks, Institutions"


http://www.let.leidenuniv.nl/history/migration/

In this specialisation you study the history of global connections 
and the various effects these have on people, goods and ideas. It 
offers three approaches from which you can make a selection: 
migration, networks, and institutions. Together, these approaches 
allow you to study the social and economic history of the increasing 
worldwide interconnectedness.


Migration studies the issue of human mobility and the integration of 
migrants into host societies, intertwined with the processes of 
urbanisation - a important topic in today's political discourse. 
Today's discussion, however, can only be fully understood with 
knowledge about developments which took place in the past.


In Networks the attention shifts to the geographical dispersion of 
migrants and patterns of migration. It allows the student to study 
other networks, such as the networks of trade and investment which 
form the major backbone of today's "globalisation".


Finally, Institutions form the setting in which economy and society 
function. Social and economic history studies the ways in which 
people manage to survive and earn a living, but in order to 
understand the dynamics of the market, one needs to study the 
economic institutions as well. You can focus on the political economy 
of Europe or Asia and concentrate on governmental policies covering 
economy, trade and investment, and shaping responses to increasing 
interconnectedness. World history, which aims at comparing levels of 
modernisation across regions over time, is also part of the Leiden 
curriculum.


Leiden University has a long tradition of research and teaching on 
the topics of international relations, the history of European 
expansion, non-western languages and cultures, as well as the history 
of racism and migration. The MA programme makes full use of this 
strong tradition.


Migration is an important subject at Leiden University. Fifty people 
work in this subject.
